A Perfect Cinnamon Pie Recipe for the holidays with a creamy spiced filling and golden crust!

Holiday pies are something I look forward to each and every year. Pumpkin pie, pecan pie, apple pie, chocolate pie… I seriously cannot get enough of them!

However this year I wanted to try a new (at least new to me) pie variety.



Cinnamon Pie

Ingredients:

8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 cup brown sugar, packed
2 large eggs + 1 egg yolk
1 1/4 cups heavy cream
1/4 cup all purpose flour
3 1/2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 pie crust, homemade or store-bought
Powdered sugar for dusting

Directions:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Roll and fit a pie crust into a standard 9 inch pie dish. Crimp the edges and place the pie crust in the refrigerator.
  • Place the cream cheese and brown sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer. Beat of high until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes. Scrape the bowl with a spatula, then beat in the eggs. Scrape the bowl again, then set the mixer on low and mix in cream, flour, cinnamon, vanilla, salt and nutmeg until very smooth.
  • Pour the cinnamon filling into the prepared pie pan. Bake for 35 minutes, until the center seems set when giggled, but not totally firm. Bake another 5 minutes if needed. Cool completely. Cover and chill.
